'African Marigolds 
GUINEA UOIiD—Carnation-like petals and unusually bril¬ 
liant golden color make this flower outstanding among 
Marigolds. It lacks much of the pungent odor of other 
Marigolds. (Pkt. 10c) (% Oz. 26c). 
YELiLiOW SUPREaiE—This is the newest of the Marigolds. 
The fluffy flowers of light golden yellow are double and 
semi-double, with petals broad and loose. The inner 
petals are shorter, curving in slightly so that the center 
is partly covered. The foliage is dark green with paler 
green stems. This Marigold does not have the odor which 
is disagreeable to some people; it is even slightly fragrant.
